Pupil instruction: history-social science academic content standards: revisions.

Abstract

Existing law requires the State Board of Education to adopt statewide academically rigorous content standards, pursuant to recommendations of the Commission for the Establishment of Academic Content and Performance Standards, in core curriculum areas, including reading, writing, mathematics, history-social science, and science. This bill would require the Superintendent of Public Instruction to recommend to the state board, as prescribed, revisions to the history-social science academic content standards. The bill would require the Superintendent to select, as prescribed, a group of experts in history-social science to assist the Superintendent in developing the recommendations. The bill would require, on or before November 30, 2023, the Superintendent to present the recommendations to the state board and would require, on or before January 31, 2024, the state board to adopt, reject, or modify the recommendations, as specified. If the state board modifies the history-social studies academic content standards recommended by the Superintendent, the bill would require the state board to provide written reasons for the modifications, as prescribed, and then, no later than March 31, 2024, to adopt the revised standards. If the state board rejects the history-social science academic content standards recommended by the Superintendent, the bill would require the state board to transmit a written explanation of the reasons for the rejection to the Superintendent, the Governor, and the appropriate policy and fiscal committees of the Legislature. The bill would authorize the state board to revise its adoption schedule for curriculum frameworks and certain instructional material items that are aligned to the history-social studies academic standards, as specified, if it adopts revised history-social studies academic content standards.
